Vetera novis augere

This is the YouTube channel of Philipp Rosemann, Cottrill-Rolfes Chair of Catholic Studies at the University of Kentucky. It brings together videos of lectures, talks, and interviews that are currently dispersed in different places across the internet, plus some material that will be uploaded here for the first time. 
The objective of the channel is epitomized in its title, "vetera novis augere." This translates as "augmenting the old by means of the new." The phrase, which is from Pope Leo XIII's encyclical "Aeterni Patris," conveys a dynamic conception of Catholic tradition: faithful to the truths of the past, we should not dismiss the insights of contemporary thought but use them to arrive at an ever deeper understanding of the faith.
